I can do that with my GTO.

The old tow bar was still hanging on the wall; I had to find an old logging chain to duplicate the ones we used.

We used to do the class weigh in with the tow bar installed, tow chains in place, tool box and slicks in the trunk, full fuel tank and ME (all 45 lbs or so) standing on the scales.

When we hit the pit area all that stuff would come flying off...

Jumping Spider. Though he looks ferocious, he's about the size of your thumbnail.
